Their members support rojava against the syrian government, and ukraine against russia. There was even an "anarcho-communist" group that tried to recruit for ukraine a few years ago, that many people got banned from their subreddit for criticizing. Also, they're very anti-china on "anti-authoritarian" grounds.

I'm not sure if these are official positions, but if all your group is doing is building opposition to all the US's main enemies, and convincing your members to adopt pro-US foreign policy positions, then you're nothing but a settler gang.

anti-imperialism and anti-US foreign policy should be item #1 on any US-based gun org. Otherwise, it's settlerism.

It's illogical and naive to believe that an anti-U.S. armed group in the U.S. would be allowed to roam freely, if they're not made for propaganda to its members then it's to write down a list of suspect the moment leftists start moving, in a real revolution in the U.S. the members of these groups will just end up either fighting for the U.S. or arrested in the same day.
